Fresh, delicious & easy going – that's tibits. With over 40 homemade vegetarian and vegan salads, hot dishes, soups, freshly pressed juices and desserts. From all over the world. You pay by weight, so you can take as much or as little as you want. It's an all day affair so perfect for breakfast, after work drinks, a leisurely meal or a take-away.

It's a bit like a fairy-tale

Once upon a time vegetarians had little choice, restaurants overflowing with meat and skimping on veg. Our heroes - three brave brothers from Switzerland - decided to change this. Christian, Daniel and Reto Frei and their dream - a delicious and fresh vegetarian buffet, as speedy as a fast food joint and as cosy as corner café.

They enlisted the help of the great Rolf and Marielle Hiltl, owners of the legendary and oldest vegetarian restaurant in the world, Haus Hiltl in Zurich. They generously shared their experience with the Frei brothers and helped to open the first tibits restaurant in 2000.

Today there are eight tibits restaurants and the two families still share close ties. United by the desire to explore and expand vegetarian and vegan cooking. The collaboration culminates in autumn 2014 with the release of a purely vegan cookbook Vegan Love Story.

Fresh, delicious, easy going – that's what we want tibits to be. And remember our three proud brothers. They’d love to know what you think.
